BSBA in Accounting TESU
#1
Everytime I look on the TESU site I see a different Credit Distribution for this degree.
Could someone explain how I can find the one that applies to me?

This is the current catalog: https://iq3prod1.smartcatalogiq.com/Cata...Accounting

However, it is somewhat confusing and makes it seem like you MUST take certain TESU courses. This is not the case. You can use https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sa...egree_Plan to plan which alternate courses to take.

Can you explain to me what is confusing you? I'm not sure what you mean by "one that applies to me"... there are so many courses that can be taken elsewhere and transferred in. You only need to take 24 RA credits from a community college, institute, or university (through a partnership or through classes/exams). The cornerstone/capstone has to be done at TESU, you can transfer in 114 credits, but 30 must be RA credits, 90 can come from alternative credits through ACE/NCCRS. The distribution for the BSBA hasn't changed much at all, the requirements are the same for each BSBA, the AOS is the only difference, you don't need to take exactly what they recommend, it's just that - a recommendation, unless it's a required course.

Just to elaborate on this, the requirements are a must, but there are alternative courses that can be transferred in to each area. The course numbers/names won't really matter either as long as the content transfer in to a very similar course. The only areas that can be really flexible are the "general education, AOS electives, and free electives"

The new "credit distribution" is awful - do NOT use that except to make sure that you make a spreadsheet for the requirements. After that, refer back to the old degree plans on their website to see the options, especially in the major.

I do not know why TESU did this new format, it's terrible. I feel like they made life confusing on purpose.

Yeah totally confusing, like they are actually suggesting what you should take. I understand it now. Just trying to think of the cheapest quickest way to get this done as a full time student.

I just want to make sure that I put the right things in the right slots.

Yes I noticed that now.

Who decides whether "the content transfer"?

Will that happen during the evaluation?

I just want to make sure that I put the right things in the right slots.

Could you take a look at what I have put together for plan?

It would help me alot.
